'''Chinese Community''' is a community page on LovedForever for preserving and sharing the lives, memories, stories and family histories of people of Chinese heritage.

LovedForever provides a place where Chinese families and communities can preserve the stories of their loved ones, share photographs and memories, and help keep family history connected across generations.

== About the Chinese Community ==
Chinese people have a long history of migration and settlement in New Zealand. Chinese communities have contributed to the social, cultural and economic life of Aotearoa New Zealand for generations.

Chinese New Zealanders come from diverse backgrounds, regions and family traditions. Families may have connections to different parts of China, Hong Kong, Macau, Taiwan, Southeast Asia and other parts of the world.

LovedForever provides a place where Chinese families can preserve and share the individual stories and experiences of their loved ones.

== People Remembered ==
This section connects people of Chinese heritage whose lives have been documented on LovedForever.

'''[[:Category:Chinese Community|View Chinese Community Memorials]]'''

As the LovedForever memorial collection grows, this page can become a place to discover people, families and stories connected to the Chinese community.

== Stories and Memories ==
A person's life is more than their name and dates on a memorial.

Family and friends can contribute:

* Personal stories
* Memories
* Photographs
* Videos
* Audio recordings
* Family history
* Family trees

These contributions help preserve the memories, experiences and life stories of loved ones for future generations.

== Family History ==
Family history connects generations and helps preserve the stories of those who came before us.

LovedForever allows families to record family relationships and build family trees connecting parents, children, siblings, grandparents and other relatives.

Families can also preserve information about their family's migration, places of origin, traditions, achievements and important life events.
